A prophet, they say, has no honour in his own country, and it has been too much the policy of New Zealanders in the past to pass over the products of their own country in favour of imported goods, which, in many cases, are actually inferior to the New Zealand article. Take tobacco for example. Most American tobaccos are objectionable on the score of excess nicotine, and the defective combustibility, leading to the clogtzing of the pipe, with unpleasant and indeed injurious consequences to the smoker. Try Riverhead Gold mild and aromatic or Toasted Navy Cut (Bulldog) of medium strength, and if you prefer a full body trv Cut Plug No. 10, the Bullhead label. There purity, flavour, aroma and all round excellence will surprise you. They are all toasted and as a result, they do not foul the pine and leave the mouth sweet and, clean. Experts maintain that of all varieties known N.Z. leaf is the least | injurious on account of its small per- i rentage of nicotine and that it may be | smoked continually without the slightest after effects.*
